Take the right path and you will come to a dead soldier surrounded by a wooden fence. The soldier has the first magnum on his body. Note that upon picking up the magnum, the Majini spring a trap and seal off the area using the trap spikes at each entrance. If this is not something you can risk, trigger the boss fight ( the two Big Majini ) and kill all the Majini before getting the magnum.Lightning Hawk - N 5,000 - In Chapter 5-3, during the Wesker fight, have Wesker knock you through the blue door ( investigate it to trigger the cutscene ), and run up the stairs. Keep going and you will come to two rooms filled with coffins and pots. There is a big chest that requires an assist to open, so be sure to constantly tap B as you run towards it so Sheeva will not default to fighting Jill. Amongst the treasure inside the chest, you will find this magnum.S&W M500 - N 30,000 - Unlocked for purchase at the shop after completely upgrading the S&W M29.

Once you have all these items, the achievement will unlock the next time you visit your item management screen. If you quit past a checkpoint after obtaining the missing piece of your collection, simply go into Item Management to activate the achievement.

I am currently missing the stage you need to pass before the various guns unlock (those that are not found, but are made available to buy as you play through the game.). I will add in the chapter requirements as they are made available to me, and give proper credit when necessary.

There is speculation that the ammunition boxes are also required to meet this achievement, but Jyejitsu has confirmed otherwise, so you should be able to tick this off without having to have the different ammunition types in storage.
